    I definitely need to use a pseudonym. Especially because I am targeting Spice Briefs and Nocturne. (And then I have one I hope to target to LI... go figure. I may need therapy right? Multiple personalities. Alter ego? Tongue out) I have family that would not understand about the nocturnes or the spice briefs... at all. A part of me thinks that even if I used my real name almost no one would make the connection because it seems so unlike me. Innocent Well, to anyone except my closest friends.

    Some authors use pen names to separate the books they write which target a particular genre and audience.

    I thought I read somewhere that there are several different ways to go about it. One way was so that your real name is not disclosed. If you ever look at some of the books you read, the name on the inside of the book where the copyright is, is different from the author's name on the cover of the book. However, I have also seen, under different publishing companies, where an author's real name was next  to the copyright with one publisher and that same author's pen name was next to the copyright with another publisher.

    So there has to be some way to keep confidentiality. I would go to a book signing using my pen name as well! LOL.

    Kalyko,

    I am dying to read this book. A friend introduced me to Lora Leigh through her Breed series. Whew, and then I read the ones about the August brothers. Talk about H.O.T. ... My friend gets a kick out of the way I blush when we talk about Lora's books. Yeah. I was an erotic fiction virgin. LOL! Now I'm trying my hand at writing it. Wink These are great books. I read an excerpt for Dawn's Awakening in one of her other books and was hooked. I'm actually on the waiting list for it at the library. Seriously, I read soooo much and so fast I can't afford to buy them all. Embarassed
